For the first time ever I do not know who to vote for, I firmly believe you should use your vote and this has put me in a dilemma. Anyone else out there with this dilemma.

A man who know his own mind Wayne, I am struggling with the mess they made of the referendum.

I just think 'what's done is done', we can't turn clock back and re-do everything.  So now we are in the process of leaving, which party offers the best hope of securing the strongest deal for Britain, without pandering to left wing liberal EU policies, and ending up with a fudge. I just think it is better to at least have the most united party doing the talking rather than parties that are in disarray and full of in-fighting etc.

aside from having the above personal view, I have no vested interest in promoting Conservatism, nor am I standing, nor campaigning, nor putting posters up in my window etc.

It's certainly a problem. I'm a floating voter so I'll make up my mind eventually.

Just hope everyone entitled to vote registers and does so. Get fed up of whingers who complain but don't partake.

I know what you mean.  But I'm with Wayne, Conservative. It is not the people who are running now it was the people who ran before that got us in a right old mess. But I'm not talking about the conservatives as a whole, I'm talking about Blair.  If he didn't go to war with Mr Bush, we would not be in this worldwide mess. Mrs May has done the right thing by calling an election. She is going to stop the meddling by the EU judges.  Why should we be ruled by  faceless person(s) in Brussels who do not know the first thing about our country, our rules, and take a big chunk of our money in the process.

Sorry to harp on, but that is the way I feel.

JenB, it isn't Mrs May's fault. Mr Cameron dillied and dallied about the referendum, we voted out, he left and left Mrs May to take over. After all the back biting she stuck to her guns and we are leaving hooray!  I cannot remember ever voting to be in the EU anyway!!  I know we voted for the common market, which is a lot different from the EU.

In principle I agree with you Wayne but that is part of the problem I do not think we have a choice we need to get a get a good deal and I can see why she called the election now. Common sense tells me one thing but I am fed up with all the misleading which goes on.
